RIYADH:At least 22 people were killed when a fuel truck crashed into a flyover in the Saudi capital Riyadh yesterday, triggering an explosion that brought down an industrial building, Saudi state television reported.
Al Ekhbariya television quoted a Saudi civil defence official as saying that at least 111 people were also injured in the incident.
The civil defence department confirmed there were deaths from a traffic accident involving a gas tanker that hit a bridge in eastern Riyadh, causing a gas leak and an explosion in a nearby heavy machinery and vehicles warehouse, according to the state news agency SPA.
